I'm in the game

He is like a fire. I get too close and I get burned. I stay too far away and miss his warmth.

Consume me and take me away

burn me until I am nothing

because I can't take another day

in this cold, cold world

I'm not sure I even want you

as much as I want to pass through you

will you let me inside

that I may escape the pain

of living without you


-Marie
